About the Wimberley Valley Museum
The Wimberley Valley Museum, located at 14068 Ranch Road 12 in Wimberley, Texas, is a unique institution that offers a glimpse into the rich history of the area. The museum is housed in the historic Winters-Wimberley House and features exhibits that tell the story of the early settlers, the mill operation, and the families who shaped the community.
Open on Fridays and the first Saturday of each month from 10 AM to 4 PM, the museum is staffed by knowledgeable docents from the Wimberley Institute of Cultures. Visitors can schedule a visit by emailing wimberleyvalleymuseum@wimwic.org or calling John Poe at (832) 545-5036.
Donations to the Wimberley Institute of Cultures, which operates the museum, are tax-deductible and support the preservation of historic homes and new projects. Visitors can also support the museum by making a one-time donation or setting up a recurring payment through PayPal.
Unlike traditional museums, the Wimberley Valley Museum focuses on storytelling and immersive experiences rather than artifacts and period pieces. The exhibits feature easy-to-read storyboards designed by experienced exhibit designer Jic Clubb, offering a trip back in time to early Wimberley.
The museum also showcases period furniture, including pieces created by William Carvin Winters, a miller and furniture maker known for his work at the state capitol. By visiting the Wimberley Valley Museum, visitors can gain a deeper understanding of the town's history and its designation as "a little bit of heaven" by residents.
The Wimberley Valley Museum Committee, comprised of volunteers from the Wimberley Institute of Culture, is always looking for individuals interested in serving as docents. Docents receive training and have the opportunity to help visitors explore the museum during three-hour shifts on Fridays and Saturdays. Don't miss the chance to experience the charm and history of Wimberley at the Wimberley Valley Museum.
